Are you presuming that there is a correlation between whether people
keep wifi on and choose particular routes? If we assume they are
independent then TfLs analysis still stands.
Presumably by analysing ticket data we can see what percentage of
passengers are carrying a device with wi-fi enabled (although in my case
that is often 3 or more - before you ask, personal phone, work phone and
kindle)
You have to carry a work phone? You have my sympathies. There's nothing worse
than the invisible leesh tying you to the office
Sheesh! My dog would tell you he's mostly on a leash.
How many spills can a spellchucker check?
You're confusing me with someone who gives a ****.
Well indeed, and the reason I carry a work phone is that I don't have an
office and can therefore work wherever I feel like but obviously need to
be in contact.
